Reciprocity Performance
The reciprocity characteristics of the film cause a color shift
towards blue-cyan when the exposure time is increased and
toward the red-yellow when the exposure time is decreased. The
film is balanced for average daylight (5500°K) at
(as well as for most electronic flash units). Recommended
filtration at other exposure times and with other illuminants is
indicated on information packaged with the film.

Caution
This film uses a small amount of caustic paste. If any paste appears, avoid contact with skin, eyes and mouth
and keep away from children and animals. If you get some paste on your skin, wipe it off immediately, then
wash with water to avoid an alkali burn. If eye contact occurs, quickly wash the area with plenty of water and
see a doctor. Keep discarded materials away from children, animals, clothing and furniture.

D-Max: The density value for the
film’s darkest black.
D-Min: The lowest density value
that a film exhibits. In prints, the
whiteness of the brightest highlight,
relative to the unprocessed print.
Slope: The positive ratio of the log
E increments of the straight line
region of the curve, as determined
by the 1/4-3/4 increment method.
The slope of an H&D curve
indicates the overall contrast of a
film: low contrast slopes less than
1.10; medium contrast slopes from
1.10 to 1.70; high contrast slopes
greater than 1.70.
